Higher dimensional theories, wherein our four dimensional universe is immersed into a bulk ambient, have received much attention recently, and the direction of investigation had, as far as we can discern, all followed the ordinary Euclidean…

We prove that a smooth Riemannian manifold admitting an imaginary generalized Killing spinor whose Dirac current satisfies an additional algebraic constraint condition can be embedded as spacelike Cauchy hypersurface in a smooth Lorentzian…

We present a moduli space for all hyperbolic basic sets of diffeomorphisms on surfaces that have an invariant measure that is absolutely continuous with respect to Hausdorff measure. To do this we introduce two new invariants: the measure…

This is a survey of the author's recent work rather than a broad survey of the literature. The survey is concerned with the global in time solutions of the Cauchy problem for matter waves propagating in the curved spacetimes, which can be,…

The zoology of singularities for Lorentzian manifold is slightly more complicated than for Riemannian manifolds. Our present work study Cauchy-compact globally hyperbolic singular flat spacetimes with extreme BTZ-like singular lines. We use…

The present paper concerns the well-posedness of the Cauchy problem for microlocally symmetrizable hyperbolic systems whose coefficients and symmetrizer are log-Lipschitz continuous, uniformly in time and space variables. For the global in…

Let $V$ be a maximal globally hyperbolic flat $n+1$--dimensional space--time with compact Cauchy surface of hyperbolic type. We prove that $V$ is globally foliated by constant mean curvature hypersurfaces $M_{\tau}$, with mean curvature…

Within the synthetic-geometric framework of Lorentzian (pre-)length spaces developed in Kunzinger and S\"amann (Ann. Glob. Anal. Geom. 54(3):399--447, 2018) we introduce a notion of a hyperbolic angle, an angle between timelike curves and…

We consider the Cauchy problem for the wave equation on a non-globally hyperbolic manifold of the special form (Minkowski plane with a handle) containing closed timelike curves (time machines). We prove that the classical solution of the…

In this paper we analyse the well-posedness of the Cauchy problem for a rather general class of hyperbolic systems with space-time dependent coefficients and with multiple characteristics of variable multiplicity. First, we establish a…

We show that every codimension one partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism must support on $\mathbb{T}^{n}$. It is locally uniquely integrable and derived from a linear codimension one Anosov diffeomorphism. Moreover, this system is…

A classical theorem, mainly due to Aleksandrov and Pogorelov, states that any Riemannian metric on $S^2$ with curvature $K>-1$ is induced on a unique convex surface in $H^3$. A similar result holds with the induced metric replaced by the…
